I'm trying to download some DLC that I have just bought but it's to slow (It says it will take over 2 hours left) so I leave the computer but every time the file is corrupted or the download gets interrupted. My internet connection is fine and It has only happened with the DLC.
Any suggestions or any other way to download the DLC?

I have the same problem with only the 'large' DLC's. Firewalker and Zaeed dlc's to be excact. The rest goes without any problem. (like the blood dragon armor and the arc projector)
P.S. I've acquired the Zaeed dlc from a 'different' source and it DOES work. So the download from Bioware seems broken

A majority of the complaints we see are from people using wireless routers, rather than a wired connection. In order to get a clean copy of the EA / Bioware downloads, you MUST revert to a HARD, solid connection.

Also, make sure you select "Save" rather than "Open". When you select "Open" you are trying to run the installers via the internet, and that forces teh distribution servers to do the job that your PC should be doing, which is extract the data files, expand them, and then install it.
Save to your local drive, then run it from there.

I'll try this but sounds weird maybe Bioware could talk to their service provider. It just, this is the first download place where I had this trouble specially with paid content.
Triblade: Thanks for your suggestion
Bogsnot1 : I'm saving the downloads, but thanks anyway.

Ewww, a gaming computer on wireless, seriously? Bleh! =)
So no, I don't have my pc on wireless. (and as said, the download completes 100% but the installation is corrupt. An download from another source does work.)
And yes, the download is saved before opened. Every download and DLC works, but just not those I mentioned before.

Give it a try using either Opera or Chrome, and make sure neither have any add-ons active at the time. For some reason, IE and Firefox tend to give more corruptions than those other 2 browsers.
